Warning

This may be moved but thought it needed posting here.
Ok just want to make everyone aware that is not already, there is a dog fighting ring in Aberdeen, dont tie your dogs up outside shops etc and stay vigilant as they steal these dogs as baiting dogs. They are also on the look for dogs free to a good home or cheap.

Are folk coming to Caithness from Aberdeen to pinch dogs?

All dogs are at risk and it is better to give out the warning than not...hopefully our Caithness dogs are safe, but Aberdeen is not all that far away...better to be safe than sorry.

Ok, put yourself in the shoes of a dog napper, I need a dog to fight and I am in Aberdeen will I head north for 4.5hrs to the tiny backwater of Caithness in my quest for angry mutts or perhaps south to Dundee, Perth, Glasgow, Stirling or Edinburgh where millions of people and their pets live. I think our dugs are not under any threat.

I hear there is a severe weather warning for Antartica tonight also, best be on our toes.

Heartwarming to see you are not worldly wise about dog fighting and don't realise these people will travel any distance to dogknap, not fighting dogs, but dogs they can use to bait the fighting dog.
The warning has been sent throughout Scotland, not only Caithness. Thanks for your interest in posting a reply.

You are indeed corect I am a dog lover not a dog fighter.
So these dogs they nab are to get the killing ones warmed up then?
I realise they will travel to get their prey but surely they wouldnt go to the end of the earth to get a few mutts when there are literally thousands only an hour or two's drive away. Maybe they will cause we will be less on our guard for these dog nappers.

Not that I have any dogs for rehoming at present, I do very much appreciate the warning,
thank you.
